Modelling high level system design and unit commitment for a microgrid
Adam Hawkes,Matthew Leach +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a linear programming cost minimization model for the high level system design and corresponding unit commitment of generators and storage within a microgrid is developed, and applied to a set of United Kingdom commercial load profiles, under best current estimates of energy prices and technology capital costs, to determine investment attractiveness of the microgrid.
Journal ArticleDOI
Progress in renewable energy
TL;DR: This paper provides an overview of some of the key technological and market developments for leading renewable energy technologies--wind, wave and tidal, photovoltaics (PV) and biomass energy.
